Emmanuelle Moureaux is an architect and designer from France. One of her latest projects - the installation "Sparkling Bubbles", will not leave indifferent both fans of original design and fans of the famous Coca-Cola drink.
Muro was born in 1971, and in 1996, a year after receiving a specialized education, she moved to Tokyo, where she lives and works to this day. Inspired by the traditional Japanese shoji partitions, which are created on the principle of the construction of Chinese screens, Emmanuelle undertook to develop her own design concept of “shikiri”, which can be roughly translated from Japanese as “dividing (creating) space with the help of color.” Muro's activities are multifaceted: hers architecture, interior solutions, furniture creation are equally inspiring … In almost every interior project, the main function is assigned to color - it is he who "creates" space. Thus, the recent project of the designer, prepared especially for the Shinjuki Creators Festa 2013, is also associated with color, or rather with a hundred different colors. It took Emmanuelle 840 sheets of paper in a hundred bright colors to create it.
Sparkling Bubbles, one of Muro's latest projects, was created specifically for the Coca-Cola Company. The installation, entirely conceived and designed by a French designer, consists of 800 acrylic spheres, symbolizing the bubbles of an invigorating drink in a glass. Small air bubbles enclosed in each sphere begin to sparkle and sparkle when light falls on them, which enlivens the composition a lot. The spheres are painted in 34 different shades, selected especially for the installation. The idea of the composition is to try to reproduce the sensations that are caused by tasting the legendary drink. The composition was shown at the "Any Tokyo 2013" exhibition recently held in Tokyo.
Emmanuelle is the recipient of the Best Installation Design Award in Tokyo 2005, the Best Store of the Year Award, which was awarded twice in 2007 and 2008 by Hong-Kong Perspective magazine in 2007 as a promising and interesting designer.
Now Muro is busy with her new projects, and in addition, since 2008 she has been an assistant professor at the Tohoku University of Art & Design.
